Hi all,
Very new to cinema 4d but worked out alot of things to this point. this one is giving me issue though.
I have a popup book scene where a building is situated middle on the paper fold. It needs to fold out and scale up(Y) to 100% as the page opens. So it kind of pops UP as the page is folding out… its a paper house.
At the moment I have just made a left and right parent to each page , basic. but you can see the idea.
Video Example:

Is there a method like a box mesh that is attached to the left and right side (page) and then bends the middle correctly as the page is turning over? Any ideas how to fold a house out and have it pop up like its attached to the page?
So just to recap I need a building to be attached to each side of a opening page and then grow up on the Y while left and right side stay attached in the middle.

Here is the c4d file also. C4D file Dropbox

Made in R25 but opens in R23,24 also. maybe even before them.
1_R_Rotate / 1_joint.R is holding the Right side of the building
1_L_Rotate / 1_joint.L is holding the Left side
there is a full building outside of the parenting called “House_untouched ++++” at the top also.

Thank you ,

Hi Cam,

Thanks a lot for the file.

You can use the Mesh Deformer with some Cluster
